The bikes were easy to ride and very comfortable. Amy and the employees at the shop were very helpful setting us up on the bikes as it was our first time riding E bikes. I would definitely rent here again.

That is what we love to hear, that our Pedego rental customer was new to e-biking and they really enjoyed the experience. Pedego Electric Bikes really do open up a whole new world of adventure. Hello, fun...and see you again soon.

Excellent service. Amy provided clear instructions on how to use the bikes and also how to get around. Very friendly and will definitely recommend to anyone wanting to do something fun in Norfolk.

It was a nice and easy going trip. On the ride out I noticed that when I got up to speed the pedals would free wheel. Before I went back I shifted the gears to maximum and I got the resistance that I was missing from Before. I got lost a few times because the trail was not clearly marked. It would have been nice to have a guide to point out places of interest on the way. Overall it was enjoyable. I don't feel tired nor am I all sweaty. I would recommend this

Thank you Joseph for choosing Pedego. It was nice helping you figure out the advantages of an e-bike, over a conventional bike. Great news is that the Elizabeth River Trail Foundation received funding for additional signage, to help ensure an easier ride and staying connected to the trail. We hope to see you again soon.
